PREFACE. 

This work has been in preparation for several years. 
It is not complete, but it is g"iven out now toarouse interest 
in the subject. We trust that where the record is incom- 
plete the proper data will be sent us. There are some 
families which we have not been able to connect with this 
history at any point, but which no doubt can be traced to 
some connection. Mr. Sanborn contemplates a larg-er work 
and we ask all to send him as complete a record of their 
family as possible. Whatever mistakes there are — and 
there are mistakes — we hope that all will help us by calling- 
our attention to the same so that they may be corrected in 
the larg-er work. Our thanks are due to all who have so 
kindly furnished us information for this work. 

Relationship is traced by numbers. For example, the 
last name, Roland Heath Gate, is 659 and after his father's 
name, Frederick Symon Gate, stand the numbers 624, 475, 
200, 156, 84, 34, 11, 2, 1. These numbers g-ive the names 
of Roland Heath Gate's fathers g-randfather, g-reat-grand- 
father, etc. There are three indexes: the Gate family, the 
Gates family, and families marrying into the Gate and Gates 
families; this last includes the maiden name of the mother. 
Dates in parentheses belong- to the wife or husband only.

Assurance and Safety may be a translation of the 
same word. These, perhaps, were brothers. A John 
Gates died in Virginia in 1(^23 or earlier. 



Gatt — Nickname, "the cat," a sobriquet affixed on the

"In memory of Mr. John Gates. lie was a fi^enlle- 
man born in Knj^land and the first settler in the town of 
Windham. By his last will and testament he g-ave a gen- 
erous leg-acy to ye First Church of Christ in Windham, 
in j)late, and a f.^enerous leg^acy in land for ye sup- 
port of ye poor, and another lej^^acy for ye support of 
ye school in said town forever. He died in Windham, July 
ye 16th, A. D., lb')7." 

[Tombstone in Windham, Conn., churchyard.] 

"Lieutenant John Gates, a pious Puritan who served 
in the wars of Kng-land, holdintr his commission under 
Cromwell. When Charles II came to the throne, he fled 
to this country for safety. He landed first in \''irginia, 
where he procured a negro servant to attend him. But 
when advertisements and pursuers were spread through 
this country to apprehend the adherents to the Protector, 
he left Virginia, came to New York, and thence to Norwick. 
.Still feeling that he would be securer in a more retired

place, he came to this plantation, dug- the first cellar, and 
with his servant raised in Windham the first English 
habitation in the springy of 1689. After leaving legacies to 
church, town and school of Windham he willed the rest of 
his property to Mary Howard, 'unless m}' child or any of 
my children now in Eng-land should come toNewEng-land. '" 

[Historical address delivered at Windham, Conn.] 

It is probable that a son of Lieutenant Gates came to Connecticut as there was a 
Cates family in Windham, Co., in 1780. 

SOUTHERN FAMILIES. 

Some records of southern families have been found but 
nothing complete. Benjamin B. Cates (M. D., University 
of Pennsylvania, 1888,) is a physician in Knoxville, Tenn., 
and Professor of Surgery in the Tennessee Medical Col- 
leg-e, (Knoxville, Tenn.) His brother, Reuben L. Cates, a 
g-raduate of the Yale Law School, is District Attorney- 
General for Knox County, Tenn., and his cousin, Charles 
Theodore Cates, Jr., is Attorney-General for the State of 
Tennessee and Supreme Court Reporter. 

The southern family starts with Joseph Cates and 
John Kates, who immig^rated to Virginia in 1635. Some 
of their descendants emigrated thence to Orang-e Co., N. 
C, and thence spread throug-h Kentucky and Tennessee. 
We find both spellings of the name — Cate and Cates. 
Some families have been found both here and in New Eng- 
land with spelling- Kates.

Joseph and Deborah Cobb I Cates, (Gorham, Me.,) 
(33-11-2-1.) 

"Joseph Cates was a citizen (of Gorham, Me.) before 
1765. He was esteemed as a man of ability and one of the 
strong" pillars of the Cong-reffational Church; he was one of 
the selectmen in 17b8, and on various important committees 
during- the War of Independence. Mr. Cates was a Deacon 
and Ruling- Elder of the church for many years." 

[ Judg-e Pierce's History of Gorham, Me.] 

"Joseph Cates was a resident of Falmouth (Cape Eliza- 
beth) as early as 1745. April 8, 1745, he was published to 
Deborah, the young-est daughter of Joshua, Jr. and P^liza- 
beth (Vaug-hn) Cobb. (I maintain that this is an error and 
that this Deborah was the daughter of Jonathan Cobb, as 
is proved by papers in the office of the Cumberland Co. 
Commissioners at Portland, Me. — M. R. S.) In 1748 Joseph 
Cates purchased a lot of land in Cape Elizabeth, on the road 
leading- from the ferry to the meeting- house, where he

probably lived. May 11, 1772 he sold this land, as he was 
then living- in Gorham to which he probably moved in 1756. 
A man of good abilities, he held many important offices in 
the town and was much beloved and respected by his fellow- 
citizens. His farm in the "Quaker neig-hborhood" was oc- 
cupied after his death by his sons Benjamin and Ebenezer 
and lately by Richard Willis a (lineal) descendant."
